The Astra Series Adobe Lightroom CC / CS6 Backlit PC Keyboard from LogicKeyboard is a dedicated keyboard with shortcuts for controlling Adobe Lightroom CC / CS6. It features low-profile scissor-switch keys and five selectable light levels, making it suitable for use in any lighting environment. The keyboard features all the regular letters, numbers, and symbol labeling that you will find on a conventional keyboard.
The keyboard features two USB 2.0 ports for connecting your mouse, contour shuttle, or USB dongle. It features a 6′ split cable with separate keyboard and USB hub connections to avoid problems with installations that require a KVM extender. You can power the keyboard by plugging in the gray USB connector. If you need to activate the USB hub on the back of the keyboard, you need to plug in the black USB connector.

Arrived promptly and in good shape. Lighted keyboard is very handy. Very pleased.

I’ve had this for two months and the keys are falling off. Not a quality build.

Recommendation: DO NOT PURCHASE. I had such high hopes for this keyboard, backlighting, DaVinci Resolve keys, perfect for learning the app and color grading in a darkened room, nice key travel. That was in July. By September the poor design and low quality of the keyboard became obvious in four ways: 1. Two of the keys came off, and would not stay on due to the fact that one of the brittle plastic clip molded to the key that attaches to the switch broke. Wrong material for molding keys, the plastic is too brittle. 2. The paint started coming off some of the keys. 3. The key spacing matches a Windows keyboard, not a Mac keyboard, the spacing of the Command and Space relative to the keys on the row above it are the wrong place for a true Mac keyboard, so if you are a touch typist and go between this and a standard Mac keyboard (like I do switching between desktop Mac and MacBook) you find yourself hitting the wrong keys when you do command shortcuts due to the difference in spacing. 4. Sometimes the caps lock does not work properly, I have to unplug and reconnect the keyboard for it to work properly sometimes. Sadly, this is past the return window, and while I put in a warranty repair request, I’m unhappy, as I don’t think a new keyboard can resolve these problems, as they are design and material choices, not simply a defective one-off.

I love the Astra keyboards. Great way to learn the shortcuts and also, because they’re illuminated, a great way way to see your keyboard in a dark edit room.

It does help me some of the shortcuts and I love that it’s backlit. Some labeled shortcuts don’t match up but that can be expected since these apps are always getting updates. Keys feel nice and I like that you can adjust the brightness of the backlight. Overall I’m happy with it.

In essence it is a cheap keyboard with poor quality print on the keys that charges the price of high end gaming keyboard. It’s sad that anything with the tag of film gets so overpriced. But you know… no other options…

Not the slim body of the recent Logic edit keyboards but in a good way

My first was the LogicKB 14, used it to death. This unit with its update DRS17 rocks, feels responsive and tight. Really a must for a Blackmagic user!
